Sierra Valley [California] ranchers face growing threat from protected gray wolves
From KCRA Channel 3:
SIERRA COUNTY, Calif. —Agriculture and cattle ranching have flourished across Sierra Valley since the mid-1800s, but the once-thriving business is now facing a growing threat from gray wolves.
These wolves, once extinct in California, have returned as part of a federally and state-protected endangered species recovery effort, with 10 confirmed wolf packs across the state. Their recent arrival in Sierra County has become increasingly problematic for ranchers.
